Our friend DjMizuhara just sent us this video from the demo version of Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm on PS3. Now this is a good looking game, very impressive.

Game looks like a button masher just like the other Playstation based Naruto games.
It may LOOK like the show, but the last I remember Naruto can't endlessly do the Rasengan
Hardly any of it looks like it takes into account the limitations or story of the characters
Button masher = fail
Have you played it? Only way to know if a game is a button masher as majority of the time you see a fighting game being presented, unless something of a tournament level, it is being shown by extremely unskilled players. Your complaints of him doing Rasengan are a reflection of this. Just someone unskilled who repeats a strong move that they learn. Also, considering there is a story mode, they are taking it into account.

err naruto the character is a HORRIBLE button masher....kage no bunshen every bloody time, hes rubbish
anyway, to me this is definitely the best cell shading combined with animation...none of the other cell shading games I have seen have impressed me with their animation at all....
ok.guys calm down.but u must admit that this is the best looing and best shaded NARUTO ever.the graphic is awesome and a lot of combos to make.but i think if they add a clever SIXAXIS motion,which can be switch like on/off it can be interesting...im still giving this game 10/10 as the best naruto game ever D

The point is, you shouldn't be able to do a Rasengan more than twice in any fight. End of story. I don't care whether the person is a "newb" playing the game and abusing a powerful move, it simply shouldn't be possible in the first place.
You can see a button masher simply by how characters move in a game, it doesn't matter how skilled anyone is. Not that it matters but in my experience, every Sony Naruto game that has come out has been a button masher.
Also last I heard this game has no single player function and it's just a fighter.
Go to their website, there is a single player function. If you looked at how EGM played SFIV in the first videos, the game looks extremely simple repetitive, however that isn't the case in the slightest.

Ugh….scratch that previous comment. The upcoming Game of Thrones video game is a F’in mobile phone game. Why can’t they came an open world GoT game, like Witcher 3 or God of War? (> 3 Months ago)

By FAR, the upcoming Game of Thrones King’s Road was the Game of the Show! It plays like God of War Ragnarok! :) (> 3 Months ago)
